    Hoovering done and washing on the line.

    Been next door to sort out what my Rabbi needs me to do in the garden this week.

    15 minutes paperwork then floor mopping and S&S before lunch.

    Slight problem on my HHC. Put the WM on and there was soap reside in the cleaning cloths then I rinsed out the laundry liquid bottle on top of the cloths = flooding WM. have switched it off and will put some fabric conditioner in it and then run a quick wash with just draining it. ;) I won't be doing that again in a hurry, but I guess I'll be mopping my kitchen floor later :rotfl:

    I did manage to tidy up the kitchen, rejig some bits and put the clean dishes away before I noticed the floor getting wet so it wasn't all bad.

    I'm going to spend 15 min sorting files on the computer, have lunch, then put the washer on again. :o

    All hard floors downstairs washed. I've also washed the outside of the garage doors as they were filthy.

    I need to attack the worktops which are rather cluttered to put it mildly.

    DD1 is reclining on the LR Sofa. I did hope that she would offer to join in my frenzied activity but it's a bit like wishing for a winning lottery ticket. Nice to dream about but miniscule chance of it happening.

    Very hot now! Sun is shining so the garage doors should dry quickly.
